Devils in the details

Dead and gone are our heroes, our poets, our saviors
Buried in the shadows of the chain stores downtown
While the ghosts of every heart we've ever broken
Spend their nights chasing us down
Just like a lie
I can feel the strain
Of the truth slipping away
Erased, and trying to fight its way out of me
So lets rally around our cities, light up your torches
Run everyone out that doesn't think like us
And tomorrow if the world dangles its existence
We've only ourselves to blame for what we've done
The light from these billboard painted stars
Burns holes into unsuspecting hearts
